School Christmas Program

Saydee and I got to go see Shylee and Alli's school performance. They were adorable and they knew all the Christmas songs so well! They were both very well heard, so sweet.

Our 4 little kids at home

November

Our time here in the west is fast coming to a close. Heath will be with us in mere days and we are all giddy with excitement, especially me. As happy as I am to get back to our home in IL and some sense of normalcy, there will be much to miss here. Bitter sweet yet again.

I had high hopes of blogging and journaling this precious time with family and friends here. I should have had my camera out every day. Oh well.

November was an especially busy month. The last two months we've mostly spent in ID living with my sister Renae, her husband Scott and their 4 cute kids. I got to be here for the building and moving in of their beautiful new home. very excting. As a bonus Isaac and Kietra recently moved to the same area and live a stone's throw away. It has been so fun getting to know Kietra and little Gabi whom I'd never met. Love 'em. Man, I'll miss everyone here and I wish I could have seen so many of you more.

Thanksgiving was great. Mom, Dad and Breanne came for a few days. And we had our delicious feast at Renae and Scott's new house. Perfect timing. Isaac, Kietra and Gabi made the long trek from down the street. And Scott's parents, Allison and Charlie were able to be with us too. It was so wonderful to have so many beloved people together in pretty tight quarters. We had a good time.

Wish Tyson could have been with us, but he had a blast with his Mom's side of the family in Disneyland. We're very excited he'll soon be joining us through the holidays. And we're so sad Heath wasn't here either. But soon!

Mom's birthday gift to the girls was tickets to Princesses on Ice. It was amazing and we desperately want to go back sometime. Loved It!

Of coarse we had to have a conjoined Princess Birthday Party. How rare and wonderful to all be together in the same area for a week of celebrating our little girls.

Saydee turned 3 on the 5th

Gabrielle turned 1 on the 7th

Alli turned 7 on the 10th

Renae made these cute little princess cakes.

Michael felt so special to be the one and only prince.

Halloween

The kids loved it! Trunk or Treat at the Church and then hit just a few houses. Such adorable kids we all have.

Knight Family Reunion

Our very first Knight Family Reunion. My Parents, siblings, and lots of little wee ones. It was a so much fun. This year Mom and Dad planned everything, lots of good food, games, outdoor movies, and the biggest slipnslide I'd ever seen.



This picture was taken only halfway from the top. The hill was pretty steep and the brave ones soaped up for extra speed. Definitely a party pleaser. Heath got the prize for longest run, 3 or 4 yards onto the grass. We are so proud.

And there should have been a prize for the sudsiest. I think it would've been a toss up between my brother-in-law Scott and Dad. And if you'd also like to cast a vote, remember its just the suds we're voting on here ;)
My Parents are never on the sidelines.

Then there were water games and sponge fights, pinatas and prizes.

Next year can't come soon enough.
I love my family.
